Pegasus the Greek Horse
There was a horse called Pegasus who came out of a creature named Medusa. Medusa was a pretty Lybian princess who was seduced by Poseidon. The Greeks believed if you look at Medusa's face she will turn you into stone.
After Pegasus was born he went to Mount Helicon and lived there. Then one day a Greek hero Bellerophon thought he could ride Pegasus to Olympus, where all the good gods lived. But to stop Bellerophon, Zeus sent a horsefly and it bit Pegasus. Then Bellerophon lost control of Pegasus and fell down to the Earth.
Now Pegasus continues to fly alone and reach Olympus where Zeus wants him to go. Since then, Pegasus had been delivering Zeus's thunderbolts to him.
Very interesting.... i really didn't know that. i've always thought that greek mytholedgy (or however it's spelled) was a very interesting subject!
